His fastball can reach into the low 90s, and he shows flashes of a good slider and change up. Christian Koss - G, .246 ( ), 3 2B, 3B, HR, 19 RBI, SB Tanner has also done a great job of commanding the strike zone. We could not be more excited to Trenton Denholm - 11 G, 2-0, 1 Sv, 0.00 ERA, 25.2 IP, 8 BB, 36 K have Tanner coming in next year and pitching in a big role.”

Northwoods League “Brett is a projectable 6’2 right handed pitcher that we believe is only scratching the surface for what he’s going to be. He can already touch 90 with his fastball and shows feel for a slider, curveball, and Green Bay Bullfrogs change. Brett has been a four year varsity starter and has 80 strikeouts in 53 innings this year.” Adrian Damla - .286, 6 doubles, 2 triples, 14 RBI, 3 SB Andre Antone - .204, 2 doubles, 12 RBI, 2 SB Darius Garcia Rochester Honkers LHP - 5-9/160 - L/L - Cerritos - Gahr HS Mike Peabody - .178, 2B, 3B, 11 RBI, 6 SB “Darius has been a part of a team at Gahr that has won the league championship the previous three California Collegiate League years.

He has a knack for using the whole field, hitting the ball on the barrel, and he continues to show more power. Sam also provides us some Great Lakes League defensive versatility and a needed right handed bat to balance the roster.” Lake Erie Monarchs Griffin Mazur- .250, 3 doubles, 2 HR, 10 RBI, GLL All-Star John Jensen 3B/OF - 6-1/195 - L/R - Santa Barbara - Santa Barbara HS - Santa Barbara CC Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League Jamestown Jammers - League Champs “John was the player of the year as a freshman last year and helped lead Santa Barbara City to a Dailin Lee - .330, 9 doubles, HR, 16 RBI, 13 SB conference title. He has been one of the better junior college hitters in the state the past two seasons. He is athletic enough to play multiple positions.

Pierce College Alaska Baseball League Anchorage Bucs “Brandon is a physical, middle of the order presence. His track record of hitting and hitting for power Jacob Castro - 5-for-37, 2 doubles, RBI is very impressive over the last two years. He is among the best hitters at the junior college level. Currently he is among the state leaders in home runs and doubles. He has also added 14 stolen Anchorage Glacier Pilots bases. Brandon is the middle of the lineup, right handed bat that we were looking for going into next Jake Cosgrove - .241, 2 doubles, 7 RBI, 3 SB year.”

Sunset Baseball League Jae Woo Park SoCal Sparrows INF - 6-1/180 - L/R - Fullerton - Sunny Hills HS Nathan Church - .288, 5 doubles, 4 RBI, 15 SB (1 save) Sam Ireland - .278, 6 doubles, 9 RBI, 10 SB “Jae Woo Park is one of the better high school infielders in the state. He has big upside and will be fun to watch the next four years. His athleticism and arm strength should allow him to stick at shortstop. He is also another left handed bat with the ability to hit doubles and triples in our yard. His skill set is a very good match for the style we want to play.”
